Reply to [Crash] Clicking Too Fast When Building Units in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

the problem with that particular save was, for some reason, my city went invisible :/ I did eventually find him by clicking around the middle of my controlled lands though.

Personally I'm a fan of League of Legends, but thats only because DG is too intensive for my machine. Once I upgrade though, I'll play DG a lot more :D

10 Minutes in in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

So I just downloaded and installed the Elemental Beta, that part went flawlessly. Startup is a bit interesting, as I have Zone Alarm firewall installed and I know its making the load screen hang. I can tell because the cursor changes to the standard windows mouse when I go down to the lower right corner of the screeen (where ZA alerts popup). I usually find the "allow" button pretty easy, but Elemental won't let the alert have screen priority, so I can't see to select the "remember th

Reply to I'm transitioning from Civ 4 in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

[quote who="greggbert" reply="1" id="2214742"]This is a good break from Civ4. The game is also very different. 1) What is up with the mining. There are "resources" out there on the map. If you capture them you get a bonus to your entire civ, just like resources in Civ4. You capture them by building a mining starbase on them. You can then use additional constructors to add modules to the starbase. This allows you to extract more of

Just because I could in OS Customization JoeUser Forums

Hello world! No, I'm not picking programming up, though I would like too, and Python sounds really appealing, I'll have to look into that another day. No, this is me saying Hello World from my new Acer Aspire One featuring WinXp Home edition and Kubunto 9.0.4! My primary machine is a Dell E1505 Core duo, and it gets the job done when I need to write a big paper, while listening to music, play a huge media file, or jump into a fee MMO (side note: Fiesta is a rather fun on

Reply to Favorite Game in Everything Else GalCiv2 Forums

Why has no one mentioned Freespace II? That game was so awesome, and now the open source community has their hands on it and its even better! thats just my favorite flight sim, I'd have to say my favorite game would probably be, well heck I don't know, I've played WAY to many. Probably FS II is as good as any I could name.

Reply to To Magic or not to Magic in Books Stardock Forums

I would agree that a strong world is needed, thats been the 'dying force' behind a lot of my stories, the world just became uninteresting. One of the reason's I am excited about this world is because as I develop more and more aspects of it I keep thinking of all the exciting stories I could tell using other characters in order to explore that facet of the world. I hope someday to actually follow through on it. For now though everything is on hold as I prepare to end school. (FINALLY!)

Reply to Why the Wii doesn't abandon the core in Everything Else Stardock Forums

IRT Blackcurtain: You probably didn't mean to accuse me of being one of those lazy kids, but just FYI, I'm not. I didn't have a console till I was 13, and that was a SNES. I had to buy all my own games for it too, which meant mowing the lawn during the hot summer and saving my pennies during the winter to get any. And while I welcome your comments, I would appreciate it if you would please refrain from the swearing on my blog. Thanks :). [quote who="/b/" comment="6"] <br /

Reply to Why the Wii doesn't abandon the core in Everything Else Stardock Forums

Granted that a lot of the core have their old systems, but a lot don't either, like me :). and having access to great games from all the 8/16/32 bit systems (sans Sony) in one box is hecka nice. I guess mostly I just think its a shame that big game sites don't cover it more. I always try to find a review on a game before I buy it to make sure there aren't any super obnoxious bugs or crap like that, and on the VC I always have to go to a specialized site, which can be sort of annoying b

Why the Wii doesn't abandon the core in Everything Else Stardock Forums

I've been hearing a lot of rumbling recently that the Nintendo Wii is beginning to lose some of its charm, and that the hardcore gamers are getting angry at the big N because its not putting out enough games on the Wii to make it appeal to them. I'll agree that there aren't nearly enough 'core' games for the Wii itself. But I ask you, when was the last time you browsed the Virtual Console selection? if you take Super Mario Galaxy out of my play history, I have spent more time

To Magic or not to Magic in Books Stardock Forums

So, I want to write a book. Not just a story, but an actual book. I don't know if I want it to get published or not, somehow I doubt it will. But I'm not one to do anything by halves, and this isn't my first excursion into writing (Follow the link if you want to see my other works, Trooper is my favorite). However, my previous works have evolved from simple scene descriptions, or RP character profiles. I want this one too be different, I want this to be a well thought out world, with

[quote who="Scoutdog" reply="1" id="2158594"]I doubt that technology will ever replace neighbors. I don't see how technology would ever keep you from moving next door to someone it you enjoy that sort of thing. (I personally don't, but that may just be because my neighbors kick up a big rave whenever I try to sleep!)[/quote] Well see thats the thing. For a lot of people it has replaced their neighbors. Neighbors are now simply someone they live next too. They don't know them,
